How about "The Creator Has a Master Plan," sung (and yodeled) by Leon Thomas on Pharoah Sanders's Karma album (and before anyone pounces on this, yes, the possessive form of Sanders is Sanders's, pronounced sand-ers-ez; that's because Sanders is a singular noun that ends in an s).
Okay, it wasn't a pop hit, but it may have been the closest thing to a pop hit that avant-garde jazz produced in the late 1960s early 1970s.
